By age 17 Jane Park was a millionaire. 

In 2013, Park went home with $1.25 million after playing the U.K.'s Euromillion's lottery. 

Having lived a life full of expensive cars, designer clothes, and plastic surgery, Park says she wants to take it all back. 

"People look at me and think, 'I wish I had her lifestyle, I wish I had her money.' But they don't realize the extent of my stress. I have material things but apart from that my life is empty," she told the UK Mirror.  "I wish I had no money most days."

So what does the Bible say about money. Here's more from CBN.com on what God says:

To right her wrong, Park plans to file a lawsuit against the U.K.'s National Lottery for giving her too much money years ago.

"You can't give a 17-year-old that amount of money," she said."I think 18 should be the minimum age for winning the ­lottery, at the least. The current age of 16 is far too young."

Park says she feels isolated by her wealth.

"It's scary how ­different my life is from my friends" she said."There's no one in the same boat as me, no-one who really understands. I feel like I'm a 40-year-old."

However,  a spokesperson for the lottery says the government already tried helping her form healthy spending habits and connect her with other young lottery winners.
